LOGIN° Amy’s POV °The knock didn’t come.The door just flew open like whoever was on the other side had misplaced the concept of manners entirely.“Where the fuck is she?!”The voice was sharp.The kind of voice that had never been told no and clearly didn’t expect today to be the day.I straightened slowly, fingers still curled into fists , as my reflection stared back at me ….. the towel secure in its place on my body, my hair damp, and my eyes steady.Jeremy’s fiancée stood in the doorway like a headline.Tall, perfect posture, hair that looked like it had never met humidity. She wore white , not soft white, but the aggressive kind that screamed I belong here.Her eyes landed on me.Paused.Then flicked down.Then back up again.Oh.I smiled.Not a big one. Just enough to be annoying.“I’m guessing you’re not looking for the towels,” I said.I didn't know who she really was, but in that moment, so much dislike for her had grown within me.Her brows pulled together. “Excuse me?”Jeremy
°Amy's POV °The shower felt too good… too calm… too unlike the chaos in my head.The warm water, soft steam, and expensive soap that smelled like flowers I couldn’t even name.I stepped out slowly, still thinking about, Grandma Lydia and how disappointed she'd be if she found out I'd left, she'd called me ungrateful maybe, and about Mia…. and Christian, I thought of the happy look on Eli’s face as he ran upstairs with the maids, I thought about this mansion, about Jeremy, about the stupid way my chest tightened whenever he looked at me like he still owned pieces of me.I wrapped myself in the towel the maid had left for me earlier…..it was fluffy and warm, almost swallowing me.But my hair was dripping down my shoulders, little drops of water trails sliding down my back.Everything felt… too open, and for a moment, too exposed.I was reaching for the robe when…..The door clicked.I froze, spinning around like if I didn't I was gonna get harmed or something.Then Jeremy stepped insid
° Amy's POV°The mansion was massive.Not just “big”… but the kind of big that makes you stop for a second and question whether you’re supposed to walk inside or admire it from a distance like a tourist. The walls looked too clean, the windows too shiny, the steps too polished. I wasn’t sure which one made me feel smaller …… the size or the perfection.I held Eli’s hand tighter than usual. He didn’t mind. He was staring at everything with the kind of wide-eyed excitement only a five-year-old could have, taking it all in like this was the Fairy Land he always talked about.Honestly… I couldn’t blame him.The servants swung the huge doors open at the exact same moment, like they’d practiced it a hundred times. Even the sound of the door opening echoed softly through the entrance hall.Jeremy walked in first.Of course he did.He loosened his tie as he moved, not even bothering to look around like the place wasn’t trying to scream “look how expensive I am” in every direction.He paused h
°Amy's POV ° I blinked twice, but she still wasn’t there. Honestly, no one was. Just the echo of my own thoughts doing laps in my head like they had nowhere else to be. Maybe I was paranoid. Maybe I was scared for her. Maybe both. She had people though she was an orphan, cousins, aunties that showed up with too much perfume and too many questions….but somehow I always ended up being the one who actually got her. The one she’d sit with in silence without feeling weird. The one she didn’t hide things from. Or… apparently she did. And I could’ve forgiven a lot of things. I could’ve swallowed the truth, even if it tasted like burnt betrayal. But telling me now? Telling me at the exact moment when believing her became the hardest thing in the world? Too late. Way too late. I hated the fact that my chest actually hurt thinking about it. And yeah, some tiny, messy part of me wished something awful would just happen to her so the anger would make more sense. So it wouldn

° Amy’s POV °The house felt strange the second they left.Too quiet. Too light. Too… empty in a way I didn’t want to admit.I stood there in the doorway for a long time, longer than made sense. I didn’t call out, I didn’t run after them, I didn’t even blink properly. I just… froze, like my body hadn’t caught up with what my mind already knew.He left.With Eli.And I let him.It wasn’t bravery, it wasn’t trust. It was just that I didn’t have anything left inside me to fight with. Not after the words we’d said, not after the look on Jeremy’s face when he realized I wasn’t going to beg.I walked back into the house slowly, shutting the door behind me. The click echoed softly. I leaned on it for a second, my forehead resting against the wood, and I finally breathed. A long, shaky one that felt like it came from somewhere in my spine.I was supposed to cry now.Break down.Fall on the floor.Do the whole dramatic collapse thing like in the movies.But nothing came.I just felt tired, the
